But the rumor mill is fun!
well damn, the first time I got something mixed up in a CSR.
Its a shame really, but its a lesson to be learned I guess.

Heck! Guess shoehorning a 308 GTS front end onto a sedan wasn’t a good idea

Noooooo! Didn’t see that coming!
If it makes any difference, I thought it was cool 
Probably just wrong market niche. I imagine if the buyer was a Japanese salaryman who raced on the Wangan at night, it would be up the top of the list!

Well damn, the first time I didn’t move on to the finals. Oh wait, it’s the 15th time.
brutal… for a car as outstanding looking as that one, it’s a shame.
ROUND I, PART II
Returning from his quick 26 hour break, Dario sits down next to Mablo.
Sierrabar: You really took your time there.
Dario: Ah well I had other important stuff to do. Anyways, let’s continue.
@Hilbert - Kiran Jeita
The Kiran Jeita puts sportiness above all else.
POSITIVES
+Performance
+Fuel economyNEGATIVES
-Sacrifices in ride comfort
-Plain styling
Sierrabar: I’m not looking for a full on sports car and this is what they’ve given me. Quickly tell me, are there any positives to this thing?
Dario: Umm, it’s relatively cheap to run?
Sierrabar: Not good enough.
The Kiran Jeita has not made it through.
@mart1n2005 - Courageux Courchevel LX
The Courchevel definitively sticks to its French roots.
POSITIVES
+Interior space
+Very safe
+PriceNEGATIVES
-Surprisingly stiff suspension
-Gearbox
Sierrabar: Another case of a cheaper price for a cheaper interior here. At least this one looks nice, even if the design itself isn’t very special. Running this thing won’t be very expensive either, but again, I’d rather choose something more expensive so I’d get a better interior too.
Dario: Well, this is pretty quick?
Sierrabar: We’ve seen a lot of those already, man.
The Courageux Courchevel LX has not made it into the finals.
@Sir_Night282nd - Moteur Devoir Crown LX
What the Moteur Devoir Crown LX gains with ride quality, it loses with fuel economy while being on the edge of the price limit.
POSITIVES
+Ride quality
+Interior quality and materials
+Subtle stylingNEGATIVES
-Space
-Fuel economy and performance in relation to the competition
Sierrabar: This comes in a nice blue but I’m not too sure about that hunchback rear. Is the inside any good?
Dario: Yeah, it’s high quality and comfortable. And well, it’s good.
Sierrabar: …just good? Does it not have anything else going for it?
Dario: I mean, it’s decently fast but most other cars are faster. And same can be said for running costs, and safety equipment. It’s just good.
Sierrabar: I see what you’re saying.
The Moteur Devoir Crown LX has not made it to the finals.
@VicVictory - Keystone Senator M37
The Keystone Senator is the cheapest car in the test, but compromises are little.
POSITIVES
+Low price
+Braking performance
+Running costsNEGATIVES
-Interior space
Sierrabar: Oh man, this interior really isn’t as good as most of the others here.
Dario: It is pretty quick though, and relatively cheap to run.
Sierrabar: I said, the interior isn’t as good as the others! And what is this styling anyway?
Dario: It’s inoffensive, that’s what I’d say.
Sierrabar: This is one of the dullest pieces of engineering I’ve ever seen, with its completely flat sides and bumpers! Not to mention the styling itself.
Dario: Right, I guess you have your mind set up.
The Keystone Senator M37 has not made it to the finals.
@Repti - Veldora Doragon SLR MT
The Veldora Doragon SLR MT is a surprising value for money.
POSITIVES
+Price
+Fuel economy
+Interior qualityNEGATIVES
-Gearbox
-Firm suspension
Sierrabar: Ooh boy, this looks distinctive.
Dario: That a bad thing?
Sierrabar: Not at all, I quite like this.
Dario: Yeah, well I’m not a fan of this 4-speed manual.
Sierrabar: This is the part when I’m supposed demean you but isn’t that pretty normal?
Dario: It might be, but considering this engine isn’t exactly the most responsive, it could lead to a sluggish ride.
Sierrabar: I see…
The Veldora Doragon SLR MT has not made it to the finals.
@CMT - Wagner Europa 460
The Wagner Europa is a car which exists, we think. The interior is not as good as can be found on the other cars.
POSITIVES
+Running costs
+PerformanceNEGATIVES
-Design
-Luggage space
-Reliability records
Dario: I would’ve told you to look at this but I guess there’s really nothing to view here.
Sierrabar: Zzzzzzz……
Dario: It’s definitely quick but I know this interior isn’t for you…
Sierrabar: Zzzzzzz……
Dario: Oh boy, this thing isn’t overly reliable either.
Sierrabar: Zzzzzzz……
Dario: Handling isn’t bad though.
The Wagner Europa 460 has not made it to the finals.
@NoahC - Yinzer Diplomatica ParDakar
What the hell is there to say about this thing
POSITIVES
+Performance
+Braking powerNEGATIVES
-Design
-Fuel economy
-Color choice
-Sluggish engine
Dario: It seems to be ready to crawl with its offroad-specialized skidtray.
Sierrabar: I don’t give a rats ass about that, I just want to know what the designers were thinking when they greenlit this car with its unfathomable design! Also why on earth does this come with a pearlescent color?!
Dario: …
Sierrabar: …
Dario: It’s pretty quick.
_The Yinzer Diplomatica ParDakar has not made it to the finals.
@GetWrekt01 - Gerade 735V Autobahn Special
The Gerade 735V is nothing exceptional.
POSITIVES
+Performance
+Fuel economy
+InteriorNEGATIVES
-Reliability records
-Small interior
Sierrabar: It’s another decent one that doesn’t strike a cord with me.
Dario: What’s wrong now? It seems decent to me.
Sierrabar: Eh… its just going to be too expensive in the long run, and the interior isn’t too big. The design is decent, nothing special.
Dario: Right, if you say so.
The Gerade 735V Autobahn Special has not made it to the finals.
@ProfessorP3PP3R - Silver-York Sovereign
The Silver-York Sovereign returns with exceptional levels of comfort.
POSITIVES
+Interior
+Ride quality
+Interior space
+StylingNEGATIVES
-Fuel economy
Sierrabar: YES!
Dario: My god, this really is as comfortable as a soft couch, isn’t it. It looks great too.
Sierrabar: GIVE IT TO ME!!
Dario: And is this safety rating real or is it a mistype? Because this thing is damn safe.
Sierrabar: WHAT I JUST SAID WAS AN ORDER, DID YOU NOT HEAR ME?!
Dario: Oh, I just thought you were breaking character.
The Silver-York Sovereign has made it to the finals.
@Kyuu77 - KGB Lynx
From a design standpoint, the KGB Lynx is interesting. And not vey nice.
POSITIVES
+Performance
+BrakingNEGATIVES
-Design
-Fuel economy
-Running costs
Sierrabar: Eh, it’s another car trying to be a sports car and a luxury car at the same time, which just brings compromises to the luxury side. It’s expensive to run too, I’m not interested.
Dario: …what were you saying? I was just looking at this design and thinking how anyon-
Sierrabar: Not interested.
The KGB Lynx has not made it to the finals.
@PigEqualsBakon - Corvelius Bombay
Riding in a Corvelius Bombay is like sitting on a cloud.
POSITIVES
+Incredibly comfortable suspension
+All-Wheel Drive
+SpeedNEGATIVES
-Handling
-It’s broken
Sierrabar: Wow… I guess someone did manage my dream of a fast cloud.
Dario: I’m not sure if I’ll like how it drives.
Sierrabar: Doesn’t matter right now.
The Corvelius Bombay has made it to the finals.
@Watermelon3878 - Bauer M35 Executive
The Bauer M35 Executive shines when it comes to speed.
POSITIVES
+Speed
+PriceNEGATIVES
-Reliability records
-Handling and driving experience
Sierrabar: Yeah, this seems decent. The ride doesn’t appear to be as comfy as most of the other ones, but it’s fine.
Dario: Think of the costs then, it’s relatively cheaper to buy and run!
Sierrabar: Yeah, no. Not a huge of the styling either, seems a bit bland.
The Bauer M35 Executive has not made it to the finals.
Dario: Okay, so, you’re not gonna believe this.
Sierrabar: Oh for crying out loud, again?
Dario: Don’t worry, at least this time you’ll have to wait about as long.

If that one was a black one, instead of that beautiful blue, I think we would already have a winner, it would made it much more mafia, Dario would love it too
And for the reviews here, I think i already know what would be my submit review 
A ‘design is decent’ from Corsica will do for me for the time being. Had fun designing for this CSR and don’t regret any of it one bit.
Also I’m an idiot for not going for a 2.8m body but oh well.

I detuned the engine for this purpose and it’s only a 3.5L compared to the competition with burly V8’s, that’s a pleasant surprise to hear!
Was the not-a-manual thing a factor? I’d have loved to put one, but didn’t for drivability.

If there’s music playing over the 3rd prelim, or the finals, it should definitely be Smuggler’s Blues or Rush Rush.
I imagine that being a video of a persecution and the eliminated cars being thrown on a tree or being shot by Dario. Imagine this on a top-down view while playing Smugger Blue’s. And the One that wins finishing the video on a top of a mountain with Sun behind it hohohohoh
I thought the moonroof on top was going to be the death knell for my car. 
But to make a car that was an admirable effort for the contest and spending my time to revamp it definitely made this challenge a whole lot of fun.
looks like Im going to have to export my car again huh.
Extremely happy to be a finalist though! First CSR and this farther than I thought I would go.
